What is microdosing?
Microdosing is a low dose intake of psychedelic substances. It is widely believed to be more effective than a higher dose, producing less of the ‘trip’ associated with higher dose intake. The goal of the practice is to harness the mental and physical benefits without over-stressing the body and mind.
What are the benefits of microdosing?
The potential benefits of microdosing are vast. These include increased energy, improved cognitive functioning, mood and creativity enhancement, as well as stress and depression reduction. Additionally, some users have reported an enhanced state of connection, spirituality, creativity, and physical well-being.
What are the potential risks?
Before you start microdosing, it’s important to consider the potential risks and make educated decisions. Microdosing is not without its risks—psychological as well as physical. Mental risks may include increased anxiety or depression, while physical risks include shitty body aches or gastrointestinal discomfort. Make sure to research the risks and be informed of the potential side effects before starting.
Are there any special tips for getting started?

• Start on a low dose and increase slowly. Begin with a dose that is significantly lower than a full therapeutic dose and observe how it makes you feel. Then slowly increase the size of your dose until you find the dose that works best for you and produces the desired effects.
• Track your progress. Keeping a journal and tracking your experiences is a great way to gain insight into your microdosing practice and make sure you make the most out of it.
• Be mindful of your dosage. Make sure you always use an accurate measuring tool, such as a milligram scale, to measure your doses.
• Stay hydrated. Stay hydrated throughout the microdosing process and drink plenty of water both during and after you ingest the substances.
• Listen to your body. Make sure that you’re always aware of your current emotional and physical state. If you feel any fear or distress, it’s important to take a step back and take the time to process and heal.
• Make sure your clearest. Microdosing could have potential legal implications depending on the location, so understanding the laws in your state or country is essential.
